El Injertal Huehuetenango Guatemalan from Marlton Coffee

This is a lovely, super ripe lot. At a City roast, you'll get butter tart, brown sugar, and if flowers could be made into candy, some of that. Translates perfectly into a phenomenal shot. Nothing too exotic or fancy; just a huge smile of a coffee.

Thanks, Pat (Danetrainer), for the heads up.

The coffee looks nice. I got it today and cup tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up.

It came out with some brightness and I think it needs resting time (~5+ days).

I did another batch with a longer dry time and that one is more ready (less resting time needed). It is mellower and the flavors are more visible at this time. It has a mellow creamy flavor which should work well with espresso.

Cheers

Has anyone tried Marlton's roast of this or their roasted coffee generally? I'm wondering about their roast of this for drip or for espresso. Thanks.

Is that a phenomenal shot at City? Or after some "translation."
I've never ordered from Marlton (never heard of them.)
However words here and NJ location make it worth a try.
Ordered 3 lbs of the huehue + 8 more various.

This is a very sweet coffee at all roasts, so lighter roasts will be more sweet & sour shots, darker ones more caramel intensive. Up to you; right now I'm liking towards-the-end-of-City for espresso.
